Ask Pauline Frommer a travel question on CNN.com Live

Travel expert Pauline Frommer, author of Pauline Frommer’s Travel Guides, is going to be taking questions on CNN.com Live, a popular online webcast version of the CNN you know from TV. You can get your travel questions answered by e-mailing Pauline (pauline@cnn.com). The new online format is great because the readers get to have a conversation with the experts.

When: The program will be aired live online at Thursdays at 10 a.m., Pacific time.

This week’s topic: Pauline will focus on New York City, a topic that she knows well. “Pauline Frommer’s New York City, Second Edition” was just named best guidebook of the year by the North American Travel Journalists Assn. So, if you were to submit questions on travel to NYC or want to tell about a great discovery you made there, it has a good chance of being aired. But don’t let that thwart you from asking other destination questions or travel method questions — send them on in. They might get on the air or stockpiled for a future program.

Tip: Visit CNN early. It took me several minutes to download the Adobe Flash Player needed to run CNN Live. We wouldn’t want you to stress at the last minute that you were missing the program.

Nantucket is a beautiful historic whaling town, 30 miles out to sea. I wonder if Pauline personally visits unique destinations written about in the guide to get the true experience.

Have travel insurance, not a $ thing, but we booked a cruise on Carnival Cruise, and tried to delay 3 weeks because wife broke her ankle and is currently wheel chair bound. Carnival Cruises refused to work with us on a delay, or even provide any help now dealing with a wheel chair bound person. Is Carnival that reckless in this economy (will never go back to them), or did we just get some high school drop out when we called.

Thanks
